Here’s a recent WNBA story from AP:

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Angel Reese insisted on everything she did Sunday it was playing a basketball game against Caitlin Clark.

The former Iowa star agreed with her college rival.

But this is not likely to defuse the sequence of events.

After the Indiana Fever rookie found himself on the floor thanks to Reese’s right elbow hitting Clark’s head as he drove to the basket, the referees used replay review to improve the foul call to a flagrant-1 and almost assuredly spark another debate about contact Clark seems to face every game.

“I can’t control the refs and they obviously affected the game a lot tonight,” Reese said after finishing with 11 points, 13 rebounds, five assists and five fouls in the Chicago Sky’s 91-83 loss at Indiana. “You’re all probably going to play this clip about 20 times before Monday.”

Naturally, it didn’t take long for the highlight to start making the rounds on social media.

But whether the elbow was intentional or not, the result was the same: Clark shot himself in the head that most sports leagues wanted to avoid.

Clark’s response was to calmly walk to the free throw line late in the third quarter, make both shots and help his team earn its second straight victory before downplaying the situation again during his post-match press conference.

“It’s like that, you know, she’s trying to play the ball and get the block,” Clark said after finishing with 23 points, nine assists and eight rebounds in her best overall game as a professional. “I mean, it happens and those free throws where you have to shoot with no one at the line are pretty tough. So I was just focusing on those free throws.

However, the scene on Sunday was quite different from that which had unfolded two weeks earlier between these same teams in front of another packed house in Indianapolis.

At the time, Sky guard Chennedy Carter hit Clark on an inbounds play which sent the unsuspecting guard to the ground. Carter was flagged with a call away from the ball, which resulted in a free throw and league officials later upgraded the call to flagrant-1.

Fever fans cheered Carter and Reese every time either was booked for a foul during Sunday’s rematch.

No, Fever coach Christie Sides wasn’t happy to see her star player step on deck again, but at least this time she thought they did things right.

“The right decision was made at that time,” Sides said. “You just have to make the right choice in these moments and we can move forward. But when we don’t make the right decision in those moments, that’s when there’s a problem and they made the right decision tonight.

Reese, obviously, disagreed.

“I think we’ve progressed really hard a few times and we haven’t gotten a lot of calls,” she said. “As I think about it and watch, I’ve seen a lot of calls that haven’t been made, I guess some people get a special whistle.”
